Which Should You Buy?
This one's a proper love-or-hate affair. NeoRio is an indulgent, boozy amber that's divisive but undeniably bold and complex. Prepare for a rich, syrupy experience that isn't for the faint-hearted.
If you're after a beast mode version of Ambre Narguile or Angel's Share, this is your jam. It's a sweet, spicy, powerhouse that doesn't just fill a room, it owns it. A safe blind buy for fans of the genre, but don't expect groundbreaking originality.

Season and Occasion Fit
Seasons
A cold-weather scent - best worn in winter and autumn.
Occasions
Its exceptional longevity and projection, coupled with its dense, sweet, and boozy character, make it ill-suited for the office or sport. However, these same qualities shine on a date or during formal winter events where its warmth and complexity can be appreciated without overwhelming.
Seasons
An autumn-weather scent at heart - warm leaves and shorter days territory.
Occasions
Given its 'out of this world' performance and 'thick, chunky sillage', this extrait is far too strong for the office. It's perfectly suited for dates and formal events where its commanding presence is an asset, and can be worn casually if applied sparingly.
